Vital

Vital is a new hop variety out of the Zatec breeding program in Czechia. Both high alpha and beta acid content gives it a spicy hop aroma. To date, Vital has been used successfully in single-hopped pale ales though it was originally bred for pharmaceutical and biomedical purposes with its increased levels of xanthohumol – a potent antioxidant.

About the Author

Hey! I'm Julian. I'm a writer, marketing consultant and I'm pretty passionate about hops. Venturing from my home in Melbourne, I've been lucky enough to have travelled to four continents conversing with brewers and hop farmers about their amazing craft. Driven by a curiosity for the business and love of beer, I've spent more than five years researching those wonderful little green things called beer hops. I'm keen to continue my travels, always learning more about the ever-evolving story of the humble humulus lupulus.
